Usually a half day event - inexpensive and we get to meet a lot of folks - not all from the RV community. Here is a link to a write up on one event we attended last year up on the Blue Ridge Parkway - near Rock Castle Gorge - RV park is just east of the winery. The Blue Ridge Wine Trail There are others in NC, TN and AL. Let me hear from you if you know of an event coming up this summer - we are making plans to get back on the road. Gean.

Now we need a good spot to park the rig?? ccxnola • View posts Wherever the rig is - I'm there too!!

Otherwise, over the river to Bayou Signette, Toad to the ferry dock, free ride across the mighty Mississippi and walk to the NOWFE functions. Have Fun!! We'll be there!!! (Rig will be in the storage lot!!) To All: The special event is the 'Royal Street Stroll' - you buy a special wine glass to participate - it's your 'ticket'. Then, starting at 5:00 PM and going until 10:00PM, stroll the Royal Street for about 10 blocks - visiting the many and various antique and art galleries - each with different food and wines from local suppliers and world wide vintners. All wine samples and food are included in the price of your glass - what a deal!! In 4 years of participation, in the best year, I only made about 75% of the offerings – and took a taxi home!! It's a BLAST!!! * This post was edited 03/10/10 09:36pm by ccxnola * Dave n Holly • View posts Lansing IL Senior Member Joined: 07/02/2009 View Profile Good Sam RV Club Member Offline Posted: 03/11/10 12:14pm Link  |  Print  |  Notify Moderator Everyone always pokes fun at me when I whip out the Boone's Farm! lolol 2009 Coachman Freedom Express 31 2009 Ford E450 Super Duty Triton V-10 Sure Beats a Tent! sixftjafp • View posts Southern Illinois New Member Joined: 12/31/2007 View Profile Offline Posted: 03/11/10 09:43pm Link  |  Print  |  Notify Moderator The Southern Illinos Wine Trail is fun Jeff 2008 Toyota Tundra Double Cab 5.7L 2011 Coachmen Catalina 30BHS HHg in Austin • View posts Austin, Texas Full Member Joined: 01/09/2010 View Profile Good Sam RV Club Member Offline Posted: 03/15/10 03:16pm Link  |  Print  |  Notify Moderator There is a "wine trail" through Fredricksburg and the Texas Hill country which is some BEAUTIFUL country with some nice RV parks.
